1093 Background: The survival outcomes of postmenopausal women with invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) are similar to invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) when treated with aromatase inhibitor, but inferior when treated with tamoxifen. We sought to investigate the survival outcomes of premenopausal ILC when compared to IDC using a population-based analysis. Methods: We used Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results data (SEER) between 1990 to 2015 to identify premenopausal patients (defined as < 50 years old), diagnosed with stage I to III IDC or ILC. Breast Cancer Specific Survival (BCSS) was assessed using log-rank test and piecewisecox models. Annual hazard of BCCS for hormone receptor positive (ER+) ILC and ER+ IDC were calculated from year 0 to 20 and defined as the proportion of patients with a BCSS event during a 1-year interval. Results: The study includes a total of 170,352 pts diagnosed with either IDC (n = 158,733) and ILC (n = 11,619). 71% of IDC and 95% of ILC pts were ER+. Median age was 44 years old and median follow up was 90 months(IQR 40-151 months). Survival analysis revealed a significant time-dependent effect of histology for BCSS (p < .0001). When compared to IDC, ILC pts had better BCSS in the first 10 years after diagnosis (HR 0.73, 95% CI 0.68-0.78), but worse BCSS outcome after year 10 (HR 1.80, 95% CI 1.59- 2.03). Similar results were observed when adjusting for ER status, histologic grade and stage on multivariate analysis. Among pts ≤ 35 years old(n = 371 ILC; 18086 IDC) survival analysis revealed a non-significant trend towards inferior outcome for ILC compared to IDC throughout the whole follow-up period (HR = 1.2 95% CI 0.96-1.52). Annual hazard of BCCS events showed a peak at year 5 for both IDC and ILC. In the subset of IDC, we noticed a decreasing hazard of BCSS from years 6 through 20. By contrast, in the subset of ILC, we observed higher frequencies of BCSS from years 6-20 when compared to IDC (p < 0.0001). Conclusions: In this population-based analysis, premenopausal ILC had worse BCSS estimates when compared to premenopausal IDC. This is explained by a higher incidence of late events in the subset of ILC when compared to IDC.

Abstract Purpose This study aims to investigate survival outcomes and prognostic factors for upward nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients receiving radiation therapy (RT) combined with chemotherapy (CT). Methods A total of 421 previously untreated, newly diagnosed T4N0-1 NPC patients, who were identified within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) registry (years 2004–2015), were collected and retrospectively reviewed. All patients received treatment of RT and CT. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to evaluate overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS). The differences in OS and CSS were compared using Log-rank test. The independent prognostic factors were established by using univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard models. Results With a median follow-up duration of 37 months (range: 3-154 months), the 5-year estimate OS and CSS rates were 59.3% and 63.7%, respectively. N0 and ≥ 65 years were poor prognostic factors for OS and CSS. Moreover, histology and race were associated with OS and CSS. Univariate analysis indicated that ≥ 65 years, N0, NHB and grade III were unfavorable independent prognosticators of OS and CSS. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that ≥ 65 years, N0 and NHB were correlated with poor OS and CSS. Conclusion Patients with stage T4N0-1 NPC receiving RT plus CT had favorable OS and CSS. Moreover, age, N stage and race were independent prognostic factors of OS and CSS.

Aim: Prognostic factors in patients with distant metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) remain uncertain. The purpose of our study is to establish a nomogram to predict survival outcomes in patients with metastatic PNETs. Methods: A total of 878 patients diagnosed with PNETs in the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database between 2004 and 2016 were retrospectively identified. The Kaplan–Meier survival analysis with log-rank test was used to analyze survival outcomes. The nomogram was established after a univariate and multivariate Cox analysis. Results: The independent prognostic variables, including age, tumor grade and primary site surgery were applied to develop a nomogram. The original concordance index was 0.773 (95% CI: 0.751–0.795), and the bias-corrected concordance index was 0.769 (95% CI: 0.748–0.791). The internal calibration curves showed well consistency and veracity in predicting cancer-specific survival probabilities. Conclusion: A nomogram was constructed and verified to predict survival outcomes in patients with distant-stage PNETs.

529 Background: BIG 1-98 is a randomized, phase III study that compares five years of tamoxifen (tam) or letrozole (let), (monotherapy arms), or their sequences (tam-let or let-tam) in post-menopausal women with ER+ early BC. In the monotherapy arms, the magnitude of benefit of adjuvant let compared with tam varies by histology (greater in invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) than invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC)). In this analysis we investigate the magnitude of benefit of let compared to tam-let and let-tam according to histology (IDC and ILC) at 96 months of median follow-up. Methods: There were 4,634 patients enrolled in the let, tam-let and let-tam arms of BIG-98. This analysis includes patients with centrally-reviewed histological subtype (n=4,223); classified as classic ILC or IDC (n=3,790); and with centrally reviewed ER, PgR and Ki67 (n=3,212). Results: The 8-year DFS and OS univariate estimates (±SE) for IDC and ILC are presented in the Table. When correcting for classic clinicopathological variables, treatment assignment was not a significant predictor of DFS and OS. Conclusions: We observed a trend toward greater magnitude of benefit in favor of let monotherapy for ILC than IDC. In the ILC subset, improvements for both DFS and OS were seen for let when compared to tam-let or let-tam, though not statistically significant. This may be due to the reduced number of ILC patients across subgroups. The present analysis is consistent with previous data from the monotherapy arms where let was associated with better DFS and OS than tam for ILC, and suggests that let might be the preferred upfront regimen for patients diagnosed with ILC.

Abstract Background Previous studies have reported poor survival rates in inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) patients than non-inflammatory local advanced breast cancer (non-IBC) patients. However, until now, the survival rate of IBC and other T4 non-IBC (T4-non-IBC) patients remains unexplored. Methods Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database was searched to identify cases with confirmed non-metastatic IBC and T4-non-IBC who had received surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy between 2010 and 2015. IBC was defined as per the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 7th edition. Breast Cancer-Specific Survival (BCSS) was estimated by plotting the Kaplan-Meier curve and compared across groups by using the log-rank test. Cox model was constructed to determine the association between IBC and BCSS after adjusting for age, race, stage of disease, tumor grade and surgery type. Results Out of a total of 1986 patients, 37.1% had IBC and mean age was 56.6 ± 12.4. After a median follow-up time of 28 months, 3-year BCSS rate for IBC and T4-non-IBC patients was 81.4 and 81.9%, respectively (log-rank p = 0.398). The 3-year BCSS rate in HR−/HER2+ cohort was higher for IBC patients than T4-non-IBC patients (89.5% vs. 80.8%; log-rank p = 0.028), and in HR−/HER2- cohort it was significantly lower for IBC patients than T4-non-IBC patients (57.4% vs. 67.5%; log-rank p = 0.010). However, it was identical between IBC and T4-non-IBC patients in both HR+/HER2- (85.0% vs. 85.3%; log-rank p = 0.567) and HR+/HER2+ (93.6% vs. 91.0%, log-rank p = 0.510) cohorts. After adjusting for potential confounding variables, we observed that IBC is a significant independent predictor for survival of HR−/HER2+ cohort (hazards ratio [HR] = 0.442; 95% CI: 0.216–0.902; P = 0.025) and HR−/HER2- cohort (HR = 1.738; 95% CI: 1.192–2.534; P = 0.004). Conclusions Patients with IBC and T4-non-IBC had a similar BCSS in the era of modern systemic treatment. In IBC patients, the HR−/HER2+ subtype is associated with a better outcome, and HR−/HER2- subtype is associated with poorer outcomes as compared to the T4-non-IBC patients.

Abstract Background Baseline cardiovascular disease (CVD) can impact the patterns of treatment and hence the outcomes of patients with lung cancer. This study aimed to characterize treatment trends and survival outcomes of patients with pre-existing CVD prior to their diagnosis of lung cancer. Methods We conducted a retrospective, population-based cohort study of patients with lung cancer diagnosed from 2004 to 2015 in a large Canadian province. Multivariable logistic regression and Cox regression models were constructed to determine the associations between CVD and treatment patterns, and its impact on overall (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS), respectively. A competing risk multistate model was developed to determine the excess mortality risk of patients with pre-existing CVD. Results A total of 20,689 patients with lung cancer were eligible for the current analysis. Men comprised 55%, and the median age at diagnosis was 70 years. One-third had at least one CVD, with the most common being congestive heart failure in 15% of patients. Pre-existing CVD was associated with a lower likelihood of receiving chemotherapy (odds ratio [OR], 0.53; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.48–0.58; P < .0001), radiotherapy (OR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.7–0.82; P < .0001), and surgery (OR, 0.56; 95% CI, 0.44–0.7; P < .0001). Adjusting for measured confounders, the presence of pre-existing CVD predicted for inferior OS (hazard ratio [HR], 1.1; 95% CI, 1.1–1.2; P < .0001) and CSS (HR, 1.1; 95% CI, 1.1–1.1; P < .0001). However, in the competing risk multistate model that adjusted for baseline characteristics, prior CVD was associated with increased risk of non-cancer related death (HR, 1.48; 95% CI, 1.33–1.64; P < 0.0001) but not cancer related death (HR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.94–1.03; P = 0.460). Conclusions Patients with lung cancer and pre-existing CVD are less likely to receive any modality of cancer treatment and are at a higher risk of non-cancer related deaths. As effective therapies such as immuno-oncology drugs are introduced, early cardio-oncology consultation may optimize management of lung cancer.

<p>Medical imaging process has evolved since 1996 until now. The forming of Computer Aided Diagnostic (CAD) is very helpful to the radiologists to diagnose breast cancer. KNN method is a method to do classification toward the object based on the learning data which the range is nearest to the object. We analysed two types of cancers IDC dan ILC. 10 parameters were observed in 1-10 pixels distance in 145 IDC dan 7 ILC. We found that the Mean of Hm(yd,d) at 1-5 pixeis the only significant parameters that distingguish IDC and ILC. This parameter at 1-5 pixels should be applied in KNN method. This finding need to be tested in diffrerent areas before it will be applied in cancer diagnostic.</p>
